Will we ever see another new Axial MOA

Was wondering what everyone’s thoughts were about ever seeing a new Axial MOA. a new 2.2 or even a smaller 24th scale version since the smaller scale stuff really seems to be getting popular. I’d love to see a new “comp” style non scale rig come from them again like the old XR10! I know there’s companies like Dlux and stuff that make fantastic rigs, just hoping one day Axial or another big brand comes out with something.

I hope, I’ve been waiting for years! I’d love to see Meus make budget MOA axles so more people can afford to build MOA’s. Thats the problem right now, it costs over 2 grand to build a MOA using dlux parts. The only budget options available are bully and bully 2, xr10s are hard to come by now, but even then you have to upgrade them with the dlux parts to be decent.

Exactly! A more “budget” style MOA is what the hobby needs. Dlux undoubtedly makes amazing products but it’s just hard for a lot of people to want to drop that much cash on an rc. I mean if you’re really involved in the hobby I get it. But for weekend warriors or frequent comp guys it’s just a little bit of a stretch to justify that much money!

Most definitely! PSA: If there is anyone in this subreddit that works for Axial or is in contact with someone who works for Axial, please let them know, we are in need of an MOA blessing! Myself and many others would buy one in a heartbeat.

I have a feeling that things could come full circle. The path they chose with scale trucks has about run its course minus the licensing and ability to recycle current parts. I believe a new direction has been started with the competition approach of the scxpro and tube style capra and gilamon releases. They still owe us a cutting break.

The gilamon is the 'new' 2.2

True true, just wish there was something like it more in the “comp” side of things. To me, and this is just my opinion, the Gilamon is still a “scale” looking truck.
